[Bug 675068] Re: Shotwell crashes if linked to files over ssh with ERROR:DirectoryMonitor.vala:510

 

Thanks for your patience on this.  I did some preliminary investigations
and couldn't reproduce this.  Import certainly took a long time (due to
pulling the images over the network) and it looked like it hanged now
and then, but in fact was just slow and chugging along.  Is it possible
this is what you were seeing?

Note that even pressing the Cancel button can take a little time because
the program is waiting for the import threads to come to a halt, which
can take time.

As for the crash at startup:

(a) is this still happening?

and (b) what is your library directory set to (that is, the directory in
Edit -> Preferences).

If you can't answer (b) because Shotwell won't start, you can find it by
running this from a console window:

$ gconftool -g /apps/shotwell/preferences/files/import_dir

Thanks!
